And it can! Enjoy the best of both worlds with the easy recipe here.Note: You might have to use your imagination to bring this chicken rollup into better focus, but my taste tests were so delicious - well, dinner came a little early that night....My Paleo Marin Rating: 4 Persimmons#paleo #AIP #glutenfree #dairyfree #autoimmune #antioxidant #chicken #broccoli #turmeric #coconutmilk #healthyeats #ginger #mushrooms

It may not be the prettiest cake on the block - but with only pears and maple syrup for sweeteners, no eggs, no dairy, and gluten free - it's definitely one of the healthiest.

Perfect for a coffee or tea break, find the tasty recipe from the Happy Hearted Kitchenhere.*

*Note: I used Cup4Cup Gluten Free Flour; added extra 1/2 Teaspoon cardamom and next time might add a bit more; and I baked the cake an extra 20 minutes at lower temperatures to get it to cook through and brown nicely.

If you're lucky enough to find a green papaya, this recipe by Yokam Ottolenghi for "Radish, Daikon and Green Papaya Salad" will provide all the crunchy goodness found on a food truck in Bangkok ~

Included as one of the "Recipes for Winter Salad & Slaws" here, substitute toasted slivered almonds for peanuts, and be sure to taste the dressing for seasoning because as they say: "Some Like it Hot!"
